Mother's Day

NPR received nearly 500 submissions from around the country and beyond from people who shared favorite memories of their mothers — whether she's still present for them to hug or lives on in their hearts.

Mother's Day is this weekend. If you haven't figured out what to give to the mothers in your life, we've got you covered.

It's Mother's Day, and today's Beautiful Music is a piano setting of a traditional Vietnamese song -- Lòng mẹ -- which translates to A Mother's Heart or A Mother's Love.

Get your hanky out. With Mother's Day nearing, listeners share the songs that remind them of their moms and the deeply moving stories behind them.
